Abstract

Exploiting organic/inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with reduced Pb content is very important for developing environment‐friendly photovoltaics. Utilizing of Pb–Sn alloying perovskite is considered as an efficient route to reduce the risk of ecosystem pollution. However, the trade‐off...
